Melanie quickly wiped her tears as they came running down her cheeks,her throat tightened,she began to think,if I leave him,if I let Ethan go and stop bugging him like he wanted,if she divorce him,then maybe he would hate her less,right?
She couldn't believe the man she walked down the aisle to meet would treat her like this,they said people change,but was it this fast,this drastic,with no reason.
She adjusted herself,and began packing up,of cause her number 6 was still working,if she's leaving, she's leaving with her card,she took car keys and was set to leave,Tiana stopped her. "Wait! The divorce papers"a huge grin plastered on her face. The maids whispered into each others ear,some were sad that Mel was leaving while some preferred to watch as it is none of their business,some wanted to help her with her bags but they were afraid of losing their job.
Melanie put her signature on the papers,she was hoping that Ethan would stop her from leaving or all of this was a nightmare.
A wait resounded in the living room,it was from Christiana,Mel tilt her head "Where are you going with all those car keys?!, how dare you try to steal from us! wretched human being!" Christiana deadpanned
Mel just continued down the stairs.
"Ethan,why are you not stopping her?!" Christiana shouted
"(Sigh) They belong to her,she owns half the cars around here" Ethan replied
Tiana and Christiana didn't like the sound of that,'where did she get that kind of money ',they were annoyed,but on the bright side, she's gone.
Soon some men were seen getting into Mel's cars and driving them off,she had called for them. "I never knew I would come back here" Mel talked to herself,why staring at the Villa in front of her.
This city held all her memories,even when driving on the road,the universe was doing it's job of reminding her about Ethan's and Tiana's wedding,which was displayed on the bill boards,even the people where not tired of gossiping about it, anytime Mel would pass by she would hear "I heard she's barren,poor lady"..
All of this were getting to her, should she just run away from all of these things or try to embrace it,it was getting to her brain,mind, physically, emotionally even spiritually.
Some people would fight it and sort for some kind of revenge,while some would run away,well it was already certain what the girl would do.
Her mind was just ringing "run,run Mel, leave this place, don't look back,get away from here,run!" It was as if a strong force was pushing her,every other thing was blurry,but a certain slide door was bright,the part was clear to her,she could just leave.
She started running,on getting to the slide door, alarms went wild in a frenzy. She looked around her only to realize she was in a mall and a shopping basket was right in her hands with unpaid items. The mall owner came out while a staff was screaming the word "thief!" The people gathered
"What did she do?""she stole something" words were flying around.
"She can't accept the fact that she's barren and decided to go into stealing" a woman voiced out
"So that's the former Mrs Fordham?! Oh my God"
A gentle voice was heard.
"Mel what happened? What happened to you? Is it true you're are suddenly a thief?" It was from Tiana..
The security guards pinned her to the marble floor 'was that not over reacting?' Mel didn't understand how things ended up like this,her head was buzzing,dizzy,her eyes blurry and glassy,an alluring voice spoke up.
"you said you won't cheat, Ethan it has just been 2 yrs, please Ethan, you know I can't live without you"
"Mel, can't you see nobody wants you here?"
He hissed with disgust and pushed the frail figure in front of him.
Ethan Fordham had brought in his mistress and asked his wife, Melanie for a divorce, claiming that she's barren.
While the ever rich and intelligent Melanie archer gets a brain tumor followed by a dark inner self and childhood trauma.
She's weak and defenseless,that an average human would think she's pretending,this earned her "weak and pathetic" from the man she used to boast about.
Tiana jelka,stole her life in a single night.
Melanie showcased her 32 white set of teeth,seeing the surprise birthday party she got from her husband and colleagues,as she made a toast,her glass shattered as she stopped in the middle of her speech, watching Ethan kissing Tiana.
This wasn't a birthday party meant for her,it was a celebration to welcome the new mistress and mother of Ethan's children.
3 yrs later
"How dare you carry another man's child Mel?
I love you, you're the one I want"
"Ethan, you are sick,ahh God,my water just broke" Mel was covered in sweat and tears.
"Mel,if you dare give birth to that child,I will kill it" he threatened, meaning every word that had come out of his mouth.
"Ethan,I can't hold on any longer,this is the worst thing you can do to a woman in labor.
